In the world of modern sports, athletes push their limits like never before. While advancements in sports science have elevated performance, they’ve also led to a rise in injuries caused by intense training, high-impact movements, and physical stress. This study delves into the common injuries athletes face—ranging from ligament tears and fractures to chronic conditions like tendonitis and stress fractures. By analysing medical reports, biomechanical assessments, and expert surveys, we identify key factors behind these injuries, including overtraining, poor warm-up routines, and improper recovery periods. More importantly, we explore practical prevention strategies, from structured training and protective gear to optimizing nutrition and playing conditions. Injury management approaches such as rehabilitation therapies, advanced medical treatments, and gradual return-to-play protocols are also examined. Ultimately, ensuring athlete safety and longevity requires a collaborative effort among coaches, trainers, and medical professionals. Through smarter training and better awareness, we can help athletes stay at their best while minimizing the risks that come with high-performance sports.
